Brabo Leone NITE / TU / Floor Houwink ten Cate
"Why do I feel most at home in a car? Always on the move. Not daring to stand still." Places, people, shoulders, fleeting moments can all feel like home, can become home for a second, a few days, or a lifetime.
In her search to “really” belong somewhere, Sarah Janneh always felt stuck between two extremes: Black and White. Brabant and Sierra Leone. Singer and Actress. Loud and Silent. Full of life and afraid to die. Happy and grieving.
With her solo show Brabo Leone, she embraces the richness of these dualities rather than choosing one. Through musical storytelling, reflection, resilience and redefining how different phases of her life have influenced her, NITE ensemble member Sarah Janneh creates a musical narrative from diverse influences in an attempt to provide a more fluid and inclusive view of what it means to be home. Her quest to find and redefine what it means to truly belong takes her from carnival in Brabant to the suburbs of Johannesburg and finally to her father’s house in Sierra Leone.
